#88: Streaming vs. Owning, Windows Naming Disaster
Do you prefer streaming or owning your media? We tackle the question from a couple of angles, arguing both sides in order to better understand the question and market. We also discuss Leo Laporte’s recent frustrated rant about the Windows naming scheme. Could their Win RT/Win Phone/Windows 8.1 naming debacle scuttle the Surface Pro, despite the Pro’s unique niche market placement? Finally, we take some listener calls on music organization and holiday virus threats.
